A CRASH on one of the main routes through Hereford caused long queues on the roads today.

The accident on the A49 roundabout near Asda saw traffic back up on Edgar Street, Holmer Road, Ross Road and Belmont Road.

It is understood the road is now partially clear and the queues are gradually clearing.

An ambulance service spokeswoman said: "We were called by just before 12pm by police. One ambulance attended the scene, but there were no injuries."
